Great Game - Definitely worth a playthrough

This game is definitely worth your time if you're into RPGs. Unique art style and great story and character development between Lee and Clementine, although some other characters not so much. Your choices also don't affect the story much - if not at all, but otherwise a great game and I'm very happy that I bought this game.

Excellent - Worth your time if you've played the first

This game carries over your choices from the first game and shows how little Clementine has grown from a young girl to a tween and the struggles she faces as the world around her is consumed by walkers and runs into a group of deserters. Fun game to play and kept my attention to the end, although again as with the first your choices really don't matter all that much.

Good atmoshpere, otherwise generic

The western setting for an xcom-like is original, the art is okay but kind of generic,with not many details (weapons almost look all the same for example), and the game is surprisingly graphically demanding on ressources for such unimpressive graphics.

Gameplay wise it's just like xcom with no base management but you can personnalize your characters with cards giving bonus and skills, also there's a special mechanic that prevents too much rng,everytime a guy dodge a shot, he loses luck making easier to hit the next time you shoot him.

The game is divided in many small campaigns whith separated story (which are okay but a bit cliche and forgettable) and different special mechanic on the world map for each campaing

Decent, could have used more features

Worth buying just on the fact they didn't just cash in on the viking craze and drop the DLC after that, it was a mess on launch. There are better mods out there but this one still has some charms of its own, or pick it up full price is you want a introduction into the potential that the Warband engine has.Recommend getting on sale. If you are big fan of this time period, check the mod Brytenwalda out.

Great value and modding community

Don't let the graphics turn you off, this game is worth it at any price, the modding community is fantastic and rivaled only by a few others,some people will say to play the game unmodded first and I mostly agree outside of a few minor mods like Diplomacy and battle sizer for larger battles. Making the game even better, you don't have to have a top of the line PC to enjoy it,can't wait for Bannerlord, and remember there is a mob for everyone for this game,Praise King Harlaus and long may he feast!

Rule ASIA

So I tried playing as Japan and became a constitional monarchy and even joined the Allies. This became one of the strangest vanilla Heart of Iron IV experiences I've ever had. When I went democratic I pretty most lost my entire navy as the facist and my forces fought a violent civil war. I guess it's not a huge loss since I have the British Empire as an ally. While that was happening a random rebellion breaks out in the Soviet Union. I find my army fighting Hungarians and Croatians in the Balkans while the rest of my army fights the Germans in France. Things were going well until Italy joined the Axis and we have no sign of US help for a while because world tension was below 70%.

In other words I had no idea how this was going to turn out or what would happen next which made this one of the best experiences I've had in HOI IV.

Great game, just don't buy it for macOS/Steam!

This game's awesome; plays and runs quite well... but the company that ported it placed "phone-home" DRM in the Steam version and since they don't do games anymore the game tries to phone-home to a server that no longer exists and fails to launch. Mac App Store version is also no longer available. If you buy this, expect to play it on PC only.

Ok....

The unit sprites, especially the eastern women are kind of generic looking compared to previous sprites, which is kind of disappointing. I mean the Mongol intrigue person has an eagle on her arm. The female Africans are slightly better but not by much. The Byzantine clothing is ok.

Too expansive

Seriously? I have over 1500 hours logged on CK2, and I was very enthusiastic in the past. But this content should've been part of the update, and to keep nickeling and diming the fans for so little and for items that should've been included in gameplay in the first place. I'm increasingly disappointed with Paradox for these tactics.
